      Lead Teaching Assistant and Instructor, Basics in Computer Productivity

      As a teaching assistant I would lead the hands on portion of the course in the use of PFS:First Choice for engineering applications. I was promoted to Lead TA in the spring semester of the 1988-1999 school year and managed 30 teaching assistants as well as acted as the assistant for 2 classes. In the summer of 1999 I assisted in the writing and development of a book that students would use in the course. My contribution was 2 complete chapters plus assistance on other chapters, development of the instructors guide and testing all problems. For the Fall semester of 1989, the teacher assigned to the course I was assisting did not show up and I was asked to teach the course on my own while enrolled as a Junior in college. Show less
